Fractal Adaptive Moving AverageSettings:
FRAMA: blue line, SC = 252, FC = 40, length = 252
EMA: orange line, length = 50
FRAMA seems to be the evolution of the current and much-used EMA. The basic strategy is simple: long if the price crosses up the line, short or exit if vice versa.
The main difference between EMA and FRAMA is that the first one seems to lag much more than the first one, as we can see from the chart below (crude oil daily chart)

Adaptive Ergodic Candlestick Oscillator [LazyBear]This updates Blau's excellent Candlestick oscillator to be adaptive by using the length of a scaled stochastic indicator and an exponent (for calculating the smoothing coefficient) to obtain the moving average.
Check out the options page for configurable variables.

Ehlers Smoothed Adaptive Momentum [LazyBear]Bored of Ehlers yet? :) I still have plenty of Ehlers in my collection, was thinking of publishing one of his Fishers or Adaptive RVI next, but @ChartArt requested Smoothed Adaptive Momentum (SAM), so here we go...
This is my 200th script (not including the variations and other custom scripts I shared over PM). My complete list of indicators here - bit.ly
Now, about the indicator :)
This smoothed adaptive momentum is straightforward to use (per Ehlers original rules). If it crosses above zero buy the next open, if it crosses below zero sell the next open. Of course, I strongly suggest filtering the signals.
Finally, here's an Ehlers-only chart to help determine where BTC is heading :P

Ehlers Adaptive CG Indicator [LazyBear]Lets go with another adaptive indicator today. BTW, this is my 199th script (1 more and I am planning to work on my other backlogs).
This is the adaptive version of Ehlers' Center Of Gravity (CG) (already published, check "More info" below). Idea behind making something "adaptive" is to calculate it using dynamic cycle period inputs instead of static setting. In adaptive CG, Ehlers uses the dominant cycle period as the length in computation of alpha.
According to Ehlers this should be more responsive than the non-adaptive version. Buy and sell signals should often occur one bar earlier than for the non-adaptive version.
I have the usual options in place. Check out plain CC for comparison.
Here's a quick comparison between CG and Adaptive CG:

Ehlers Adaptive Cyber Cycle Indicator [LazyBear]Another famous Ehlers indicator.
This is the adaptive version of Ehlers' Cyber Cycle (CC) (already published, check "More info" below). Idea behind making something "adaptive" is to calculate it using dynamic cycle period inputs instead of static setting. In adaptive cyber cycle, Ehlers uses the dominant cycle period as the length in computation of alpha.
According to Ehlers this should be more responsive than the non-adaptive version. Buy and sell signals should often occur one bar earlier than for the non-adaptive version.

Ehlers MESA Adaptive Moving Average [LazyBear]Another one to add to Ehlers collection.
The MESA Adaptive Moving Average (MAMA) adapts to price movement based on the rate of change of phase as measured by the Hilbert Transform Discriminator. This method features a fast attack average and a slow decay average so that composite average rapidly ratchets behind price changes and holds the average value until the next ratchet occurs. Consider FAMA (Following AMA) as the signal.
Here are some of the options:
Fill MAMA/FAMA region (ribbon mode):
Mark Crossovers:
The above options (along with the bar colors) allow this to be used as a standalone system.
BTW, John Ehlers calls MAMA, "Mother of all Adaptive Moving Averages", lemme know what you think :)

Kaufman Moving Average Adaptive (KAMA) Everyone wants a short-term, fast trading trend that works without large
losses. That combination does not exist. But it is possible to have fast
trading trends in which one must get in or out of the market quickly, but
these have the distinct disadvantage of being whipsawed by market noise
when the market is volatile in a sideways trending market. During these
periods, the trader is jumping in and out of positions with no profit-making
trend in sight. In an attempt to overcome the problem of noise and still be
able to get closer to the actual change of the trend, Kaufman developed an
indicator that adapts to market movement. This indicator, an adaptive moving
average (AMA), moves very slowly when markets are moving sideways but moves
swiftly when the markets also move swiftly, change directions or break out of
a trading range.
